Jiang Jinnian, the current head of the Jiang family, is notoriously self-disciplined and courteous, with a cold temperament. Even though the Jiang and Shen families had a long-standing marriage agreement, no one ever connected him with Shen Nanzhi. For many years, Shen Nanzhi thought the same. Jiang Jinnian spent years abroad, his personality cold, rarely returning home. They barely had any opportunities to meet. Even when they did, Shen Nanzhi always avoided him.
She never imagined that the families’ marriage agreement would, by chance, fall upon her and Jiang Jinnian. Even less did she expect that every twilight and night after their marriage registration, he would take her through all the intimacies of a married couple.
— When news of Jiang Jinnian and Shen Nanzhi’s marriage certificate circulated in the circle, everyone was shocked and surprised. Everyone said Jiang Jinnian fulfilled the families’ union out of a sense of responsibility. Until one day, someone accidentally witnessed their interaction outside their marital home—
At the entrance of the spiral staircase, Shen Nanzhi, in a silk nightgown, her delicate skin covered in ambiguous marks, frowned and accused him of being a beast in human clothing. Jiang Jinnian, holding her close, coaxed her good-naturedly, “It’s my fault, but—” He narrowed his eyes, pinching her delicate chin: “Who made someone yell about divorce last night, hmm?”
